No. By definition a common carrier is an individual, a company, or a public utility (such as municipal buses) which is in the regular business of transporting people and/or freight. This is distinguished from a private carrier which only transports occasionally or as a one-time-only event. A bus 'chartered' to transport people is doing so as a 'private carrier'.
Another View: (in the US) Yes, and no, to the above answer. 'Common carrier' in this instance means that the coach operator holds itself out to supply transportation to the general public under licenses granted by the DOT and the ICC to perform service as a common carrier. Even though the chartered coach itself may not be involved in working a commuter route (for instance) it must still be operated by a common-carrier company.

Law for stopping for school bus on divided four-lane road in Virginia?
New South Carolina law does not require you to stop on any four lane road for a stopped school bus if you are headed in the opposite direciton. The old law required you to stop if you were separated by only painted lines - you could keep going if there was a grass median. It is now not legal for bus drivers to drop off children if they must cross a four lane highway, therefore opposing traffic does not have to stop on this type of roadway. The new law has been poorly marked by signs, so a lot of people don't know any better and still stop going the opposite direction on five lane roads. Texas law states that you must stop at all times for a school bus with it's red lights on unless you are travelling in the opposite direction of the bus on a highway that is divided by a grass medium or physical barrier.That does not include divided city streets,only highways. Unless there is some new law here, that is the way it stands now. CORRECTION: Texas traffic code defines "highway" as ANY public roadway. So, if you're on a public roadway with a PHYSICAL median and you are travelling the opposite direction of the school bus (on the other side of the median), then you may proceed cautiously. NOTE: This does NOT include simple left-turn lanes without a physical median. In many (most?) states the median described in the question defines a "divided" highway and the opposing traffic is not required to stop. All state laws are different CHECK YOUR OWN STATE!
